well, my thought were a wolftooth narrow wide 1x ring. they make one offset specifically for road cranks. between the derailleur around 100g, cable and housnig around 40g, inner ring 35g, lighter new ring, it should be around 200. but again, im not concerned with versatility. i have a stable of bikes for other things and plan on using this one for crits only. like i said, ill leave it as is for a few races and see if i can justify changing it or not
